| Dad Ticketed For Selling Girl Scout Cookies With Daughter Without License http://www.click2houston.com/food/4264389/detail.html Dad Ticketed For Selling Girl Scout Cookies With Daughter Pair Was Selling Cookies Without License Posted: 12:02 pm CST March 8, 2005 New York -- A Long Island, N.Y., man was ticketed in Brooklyn, N.Y., for selling Girl Scout cookies with his 13-year-old daughter. The man, Hoi Louis, was in Williamsburg delivering the cookies with his daughter over the weekend. The man told the New York Post it was his old neighborhood, before he moved, and he and his daughter have been selling Girl Scout cookies there since his daughter was in first grade. At 4:50 p.m. Saturday a police captain and a uniformed officer pulled up to their van as they were unloading cookies. Louis told the Post that the Captain from the 94th Precinct ticketed the man for selling cookies without a license. The NYPD says the man and his daughter were not delivering the cookies, but instead were selling the cookies from a table they had set up on the street. The child's grandmother, who was in the van, said her granddaughter was frightened by the police and the girl's father was flabbergasted. Copyright 2005 by The Associated Press.

| What a jerky cop. Cut 'em some slack - it's the freaking Girl Scouts! They should've tried to "buy" the cop with a free box of Thin Mints...mmm...they're the freaking BEST! | |||

| I didn't know you had to even have a license to sell Girl Scout cookies. I guess it's a good thing I've never sold them. My favorite are the peanut butter cookies. __________________ Family Ties Seasons 1-5 on dvd! | |||

| If you're selling cookies from a table, then it probably is against the law without a license. And that's understandable considering how many street vendors that are in most citites. But hell, a warning would've been just fine in my opinion. Anyway, my favorite are the caramel delites...even though I'm not a big fan of coconut. __________________ quaeque ipse miserrima vidi et quorum pars magna fui (All these terrible things I saw, a great part of which I was) - Virgil, The Aeneid | |||

| From what I gather its fine to go door-to-door, but setting up a 'stall' on public property is illegal, which i can understand. i dont really agree with it but i understand. I think a warning would have been more than enough! __________________ Spike: Five words. Out. For. A. Walk......... B!tch | |||
